Foreign Workers and the Wage Distribution: What Does the Influence Function Reveal?
This paper draws upon influence function regression methods to determine where foreign workers stand in the distribution of private sector wages in Luxembourg, and assess whether and how much their wages contribute to wage inequality.

The inverse non-stationary problem of identification of defects in an elastic rod [PDF]
Non-stationary inverse problems of deformed solid mechanics are among the most underexplored due to, inter alia, increasing dimension of non-stationary problems per unit as compared with stationary and static problems, as well as necessity to consider ...

Two variants of M split estimation – similarities and differences [PDF]
M split estimation is a novel method developed to process observation sets that include two (or more) observation aggregations. The main objective of the method is to estimate the location parameters of each aggregation without any preliminary assumption

Land Subsidence Estimation for Aquifer Drainage Induced by Underground Mining
Land subsidence caused by groundwater withdrawal induced by mining is a relatively unknown phenomenon. This is primarily due to the small scale of such movements compared to the land subsidence caused by deposit extraction. Nonetheless, the environmental

Določitev primernega geodetskega datuma z uporabo robustnih statističnih metod ( = Definition of appropriate geodetic datum using robust statistical methods) [PDF]
The correct determination of geodetic datum is an obligatory condition for the proper determination of the point displacements. There are various methods of deformation analysis focused on the right identification of stable points, which ...

Point Cloud Denoising Algorithm via Geometric Metrics on the Statistical Manifold
A denoising algorithm was proposed for point cloud with high-density noise. The algorithm utilized geometric metrics on the statistical manifold and applied the idea of clustering K-means based on local statistical characteristics between noise and valid

Optimal Control for a Nonlocal Model of Non-Newtonian Fluid Flows
This paper deals with an optimal control problem for a nonlocal model of the steady-state flow of a differential type fluid of complexity 2 with variable viscosity. We assume that the fluid occupies a bounded three-dimensional (or two-dimensional) domain

Robust Estimations for the Tail Index of Weibull-Type Distribution
Based on suitable left-truncated or censored data, two flexible classes of M-estimations of Weibull tail coefficient are proposed with two additional parameters bounding the impact of extreme contamination.
